Abstract

Rapid increase in dry weight, increase in nitrogen and protein content and negligible amounts of ethylene evolution were found to be related to differentiation of multiple shoots in cultures of seedli ng shoot tips of chickpea. Slow growth rate, low per cent nitrogen in cultures of segments of seedling hypocotyl lead only to callus formation.
